"Hold the door!" a voice called out from outside the elevator.If it had been anyone else, Noelle would have pressed the button to keep the doors open. But this time, she lowered her gaze and began frantically pressing the close button instead.Alas, she was still too slow. Just as the doors were about to shut, a hand shot out and blocked them, causing them to slide open again.Noelle pressed her lips into a tight line.Despite being the one who forced the doors open, Hendrix still thanked her as he stepped inside.Noelle didn't respond. Instead, she silently pulled Rosie to the side, as if trying to put as much distance between them and him as possible.Hendrix noticed but said nothing, simply staring at the changing numbers on the elevator panel. Soon, they reached their floor, and Noelle stepped out with Rosie first.Noelle then reached for her keys to unlock the door, but she quickly realized her keys were missing."Mommy, I need to go potty," Rosie said."Okay, sweetheart
The Sway and Slide of Love Chapter 609
Noelle's expression immediately darkened. She rushed forward and snatched the keys from Hendrix's hand."Did you—" She wanted to accuse him of stealing them, but before the words could leave her mouth, she realized how absurd that sounded.Hendrix, as if reading her mind, quickly explained, "You dropped them when you were taking something out of your bag earlier. I just picked them up.""Then, why didn't you give them to me right away?""You didn't give me a chance, did you?" Hendrix smiled faintly, his tone almost innocent. "Besides, Rosie was literally about to burst, and I was worried she'd pee herself."His explanation sounded perfectly reasonable.For a moment, Noelle was unable to come up with a retort. She stared at him for a few seconds before finally taking Rosie's hand and leaving."Aren't you going to drink the juice?" he called after her.Noelle didn't even glance back. She knew he had done it on purpose. Otherwise, he would have handed her the keys in the elevator.

"I was the one who had the surveillance camera installed." As if reading Noelle's mind, Hendrix quickly explained, "But I did it for your safety. Take what happened tonight, for example. If it weren't for—"Noelle cut him off, "If you hadn't suddenly moved in, that man would never have entered our lives in the first place."Hendrix was momentarily stunned, then he couldn't help but laugh. "What are you trying to say? Are you saying this is my fault, too?""Isn't it?" Noelle shot back. "You were the ones who hired those movers!""I only hired the moving company. Who they employ is beyond my control.""But this all started because of you. If you hadn't moved here, none of this would have happened!"Hendrix fell silent because it finally dawned on him that Noelle was determined to pin the blame on him, and no amount of arguing would change her mind. So, he decided to say nothing more.Noelle didn't bother with him, either. She turned around and took Rosie back inside.But once the

Hendrix had knocked out the wall in the middle. The master bedroom and study had been combined into one, and the secondary bedroom and living room now felt much more spacious.By now, Rosie was completely exhausted. The moment Noelle picked her up, she immediately leaned on Noelle's shoulder and fell asleep. As for where they were now, she didn't even notice."The bedding is clean. Do you need anything else?" Hendrix asked her from the doorway."No, thank you.""Don't you need to shower or change into pajamas?"His question immediately made Noelle frown.Hendrix quickly added, "Sorry. I didn't mean it like that. So, um… Have a good rest, then. I'm in the room across the hall. Call me if you need anything."After saying that, he turned and left. But Noelle quickly followed him.Hendrix initially thought she had something to say to him, but the next moment, he realized she had closed the door behind him. He even heard the sound of the lock clicking into place.Hendrix paused mid

Hendrix had no choice but to return upstairs.On most days, Noelle and Rosie's routine was the same—they would go out in the morning and again in the evening. By around 11:00 am, Noelle would usually bring Rosie back for lunch and a nap.But today, they didn't return.It wasn't until evening that Hendrix finally heard movement across the hall. He immediately opened his door. But what he saw was a group of unfamiliar men.His expression darkened instantly. "What are you all doing here?"The sudden sound startled the group of men. They turned to look at Hendrix, confused. "And you are?""What are you doing here?" Hendrix asked again, his tone impatient. "Are you here to fix the wiring? Do you really need this many people to fix one wire?""No, we're here to move some things," one of them replied.Hendrix's eyes narrowed slightly. Then, he asked in disbelief. "Move things?""Yeah." The mover double-checked the unit number. "Block 5, Unit 904. Yep, this is the place."As he spoke
The Sway and Slide of Love Chapter 613
"Thank you," Noelle said as she took the invoice from the mover. While confirming and signing the document, she added, "I was going to ask my husband to grab you guys some energy drinks when he got back, but he couldn't make it back in time. Here. Take this cash and get some yourselves.""You're too kind, but we can't possibly take this." The movers initially refused but eventually relented.After they left, Noelle immediately placed a pair of men's shoes by the door and hung a few men's clothes on the balcony."Mommy, are we going to live here from now on?" Rosie asked."That's right, sweetheart.""What about our old apartment?""I gave it back to the landlord. This is our new home now.""Then, will I still get to see Marco and the rest of my friends?""Of course. This place is close to our old place, and you'll also get to see them when you go to kindergarten."Hearing this, Rosie finally nodded in relief.Noelle had spent the whole day unpacking and didn't have time to coo

As soon as the door opened, Noelle was hit by a strong smell of alcohol coming off Hendrix. She immediately frowned and tightened her grip on the doorknob, bracing herself against the doorframe."What do you want?" she asked.It was already very late at night.There were three other families living on this floor besides Noelle, and the last thing she wanted was to put on a scene for the neighbors. So, she kept her voice low.Just moments ago, Hendrix had been banging on her door, demanding she let him in. But now that she had actually opened it, he stood there in silence, staring at her.After a brief moment of eye contact, Noelle looked away. "If there's nothing else, please leave."She moved to close the door, but the next moment, Hendrix pressed his hand against it."Do you really hate seeing me that much?" His head was lowered, his voice raspy. "I just moved in, and you couldn't wait to move out? Noelle, are you really that heartless? Won't you even give me the slightest cha

Instead, Seline apologized to Noelle about Dylan."I didn't have all the facts before, and I ended up meddling in your relationship. Honestly, I never expected Dylan to be that kind of person!"Seline frowned as she spoke, but she noticed Noelle was looking at her intently. That gaze made Seline's frown deepen.Then, she asked cautiously, "You don't blame me, do you?""Why would I blame you?" Noelle found it amusing. "This has nothing to do with you.""But I was the one who pushed you into it—""I'm an adult. If I can't even think for myself on a basic level, does that mean I should blame someone every time I make the wrong decision?"Noelle let out a sigh before continuing, "Besides, I also thought Dylan was a good fit at the time. But the truth is, we just weren't compatible.""Not compatible? He's the one who doesn't deserve you!" Seline immediately retorted. "And you know what? Lately, people in the circle have been talking—saying that the woman who dumped Hendrix ended up

"I'm damned for ever believing your words! Now, just die!" George didn't give Dylan another chance to speak. He pulled the trigger, aiming to shoot a bullet through Dylan's forehead.In that instant, Dylan finally understood. This time, Hendrix didn't intend to leave him alive.If the goal had only been to swallow up Morphy Fund and make Dylan lose everything, the matter would have ended there. However, it seemed that Hendrix must have said something to George, which led him to believe that Dylan and Hendrix were working together—that Dylan had betrayed Morphy Fund.At this point, George had no way out. So, it wouldn't be surprising if he shot Dylan in the head. What Hendrix wanted was for him to die.Dylan didn't know what he was thinking at that moment. By the time he reacted, he had already grabbed the gun's barrel and twisted it violently. The bullet scraped past his head.Without hesitation, George moved to pull the trigger again when Dylan, still holding onto his wrist, forc

Dylan still remembered the victory party at the villa a few days ago. At that time, George had pushed him in front of everyone. He had enjoyed all the praise and recognition while sipping glass after glass of champagne.He knew that no matter how much doubt and skepticism there had been about him in the past, it all vanished that night. That was also why George had thrown him a victory party at the very first stage.After all, only by telling everyone about his achievements would they believe in him and entrust him with their funds. But they probably didn't expect the final result to be like this.Actually, when Fuer Fund continued to add to their position after reaching the peak, George had already warned Dylan that there might be some issues. But the market was unpredictable—a moment's decision or a few seconds of hesitation could lead to failure.Thus, Dylan didn't wait. He thought Hendrix was also gambling. So, he disregarded the risk and pushed all the funds in. He wanted Hend

Noelle's expression changed at that moment. It took her a while to find her voice to ask, "Is that what really happened?""Hendrix definitely hasn't told you all these, right?" Dylan smirked. "It's because he's too afraid to mention them. So, tell me. How could someone like him possibly deserve a happy life? "Don't worry. I'll make sure to take him down this time. Once I get your passport, you can go whenever you want."When he finished speaking, there was sincerity and seriousness in his eyes as he looked at Noelle. He really hoped she would stay. Of course, he wanted victory. But if he could have her by his side when he achieved it, that would be even better.Although once he reached the top, anyone could stay by his side. But the person he wanted most was Noelle."Thank you," Noelle said in the end.That wasn't the answer Dylan was most satisfied with. But he knew he couldn't afford to rush things just yet. For now, it was enough that Noelle was on his side."Alright, go to
The Sway and Slide of Love Chapter 852
As Dylan spoke, his teeth clenched tighter. It was unclear whether he was trying to convince Noelle or himself.Noelle remained silent, quietly watching him.After staring at her for a while, Dylan suddenly laughed. "So, do you know why we were celebrating tonight?"Noelle shook her head."Because we stole Fuer Fund's opportunity! It's all thanks to the plan you sent me before. Now, no matter what Fuer Fund does next, we'll know about it. "George is really happy, too. He used to doubt my abilities, worried that I'd drag down his fund, but you should've seen how he treated me tonight."Not just him, but the whole industry now recognizes me. I've finally established myself here!"Dylan's voice grew more excited as he spoke.Noelle, however, remained calm.The only sign of change was when she heard that he succeeded because of the plan she had given him—her brow slightly lifted. But it was just for a moment.She quickly regained her calm and nodded.Her reaction made Dylan fro
The Sway and Slide of Love Chapter 851
George didn't care about being cautious. He was too excited. He had clashed with Fuer Fund a few times before, but when faced with absolute power, he had barely gotten any scraps from the table.Now, to be able to seize such a large slice of the pie from Fuer Fund and force them to back off, how could George not be thrilled?Thus, the drinks kept coming, one after another.Even if Dylan hadn't planned on getting drunk, it was hard to refuse the goodwill of so many people. In the end, he was thoroughly drunk.When he returned to the apartment, his steps were unsteady. Seeing the light still on inside, he paused for a moment. Then, he suddenly remembered he didn't live alone anymore. Noelle also lived with him now.Though Dylan was well aware, and his rational mind reminded him repeatedly that he had essentially kept her here as a hostage. If Hendrix made any further moves, he would have no choice but to kill her.But when he saw the light she had left on for him, Dylan couldn't he

The plan Hendrix had given Dylan was, of course, real. Though he had been tempted to lace it with a trap and watch him walk right into it, he knew better—Dylan wasn't that stupid.More importantly, what Hendrix truly wanted wasn't just to bait Dylan into a trap. Even if Dylan didn't trust the plan, it didn't matter. Their team would still move forward with the plan. But if he did trust it, all the better.Fuer Fund wouldn't tolerate anyone messing with their slice of the pie. And what Hendrix wanted was to drag Erwin and the rest of them into the game.Dylan might have found himself a solid backer, but this wasn't Coppersville. Taking him down alone wouldn't be easy. But what if Fuer Fund collapsed with Hendrix? That would change everything, and that was Hendrix's real goal.Thus, Hendrix didn't even panic when Erwin called him out on it. He simply raised an eyebrow."If this gets out, do you still think you'll have a place in this business?" Erwin slammed his hand on the desk. "O

"Stay at your place?" Noelle asked."Yeah," Dylan said with a smile. "Hendrix already has another woman now, doesn't he? But don't worry. Unless it's something you're willing to do, I'll never touch you.""Alright."Dylan had planned to say more but was caught off guard by how readily Noelle agreed. Her response made even him freeze for a second. Then, he narrowed his eyes slightly."Do you need me to do anything else?" Noelle asked.She looked completely sincere and serious, like they were truly on the same side now.But Dylan still held on to a shred of suspicion. Regardless, Noelle was in his hands for the time being. If all of this really was an act, and she was lying to him, then she shouldn't blame him for what came next.With that thought, Dylan smiled slightly and gently took Noelle's hand. "Alright. I'll have someone make arrangements right away."Just as he finished speaking, his partner George called to inform him that Hendrix's side had already started moving."Tha

Dylan took Noelle out of the hospital. She truly wasn't feeling well. After Dylan drove for a while, her complexion turned even paler.In the end, Dylan had no choice but to take her to another hospital. While the doctor reported her condition to him, Dylan's gaze slowly fell on the person lying in the hospital bed.Noelle had fallen into a sleep. Her face was still pale, and her brows were tightly furrowed. She looked so fragile and delicate. But at that moment, Dylan couldn't be sure if she was scheming something.Ultimately, he didn't do anything. He just quietly sat by her side. He didn't know how much time had passed before Noelle finally woke up.When she saw him, she seemed momentarily startled. Then, a flicker of disappointment passed clearly through her eyes.Noticing this, Dylan narrowed his eyes slightly but said nothing."Thank you," Noelle said softly.Dylan looked at her without responding."Can I see my phone?" she asked.He handed it to her in silence.Noelle
The Sway and Slide of Love Chapter 847
Dylan's gaze darkened. Just as he was about to step forward, someone else beat him to it.Hendrix crouched down in front of Noelle. "What happened?"Seeing this, Dylan almost laughed. He knew things wouldn't be that simple. With how devoted Hendrix had been to Noelle before, how could he possibly fall out of love so quickly?As expected, this was just a show the two of them had put on for Dylan. With that though, he didn't linger. He turned and was about to leave when he heard Noelle's voice."Let go of me!"Her voice wasn't loud in the noisy hospital, but Dylan heard it clearly. He immediately turned his head.Hendrix was holding onto her other hand, seemingly trying to take her away.But Noelle kept struggling. "Let go of me!""Noelle Swanson!""You already have another woman, so why do you still care about me?" Noelle gritted her teeth and glared at him. "Let me tell you—I don't want anything you gave me! And I don't want to see you right now, either!"As she spoke, she tr
